Answer: This option is incorrect: <span>B. Covalent compounds are held together by much stronger interparticle forces than are ionic compounds.
Justification:
Ionic bonds, held by ionic compounds, are much stronger than covalent bonds, held by covalent compounds.
In ionic bonds one element yields one or more electrons forming a cation (a positively charged ion) and the other element accepts the electrons forming an anion (a negatively charged ion).
The anion and the cation are electrostatically atracted by each other. This electrostatic atraction force, named ionic bond, is very strong.
As result of this, the ionic compounds form strong crystals with high boiling and fusion points. A good example of this the sodium chloride, formed by the union of cation Na(+) and anion Cl(-).
The covalent bonds are result of sharing electrons and do not form ions. This bond is weaker than the ionic bond.

Ok to answer this question we firsst need to fin the number of mol of Urea (CH4N2O). to do this we simply :
1 mol of urea =15/60.055 = 0.25mol
therefore 200g of water contain 0.25mol
the next step is to determine the malality of our solution in 200g of water, to do this we say:
200 g = 1Kg/1000g = 0.2kg
therefor 0.25mol/0.2Kg = 1.25mol/kg
and from the equation:
we know that i = 1
we are given Kf
b is the molality that we just calculated
therefore;
the solutions freezing point is -2.325°C
Neon is usually found in the form of a gas with molecules consisting of a single Neon atom. Neon is a rare gas that is found in the Earth's<span> atmosphere at 1 part in 65,000. I'm not 100% sure but i am pretty sure it is found in both places but more is in South America. Just incase, wait for someone else to answer.</span>
Explanations:- Part 1: We could count the total number of electrons by looking at the electron configurations. Both of these electrons configurations have 47 electrons. If we look at the periodic table then 47 is the atomic number of silver. So, the name of the element is silver and its represented as Ag.
Part 2: As per the rule, Completely filled and half filled orbitals are more stable. First electron configuration has 9 electrons in 4d and we know that d is more stable if it has 5 electrons(half filled) or it has 10 electrons(full filled).
For stability reasons, one of the electron from 5s goes to 4d and for this reason the second electron configuration is found most often in nature for silver.
Few other examples are Cr and Cu.
